Ingredients

  • Ingredients
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2 cups milk 480ml
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • cups all-purpose flour 270g
  • ½ cup unsalted butter melted (113g)
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar 50g
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder

Instructions

  • Preheat your waffle iron, opting for a higher heat setting if a crisper texture is desired. In a spacious bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt with a whisk. In a separate bowl, blend the milk, melted butter, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just incorporated; a slightly lumpy batter is ideal. Lightly grease the preheated waffle iron using butter or cooking spray. Ladle approximately ⅓ cup of batter per waffle onto the iron—adjust the amount according to the size of your waffle maker. Cook until the waffles achieve a golden hue. Transfer each finished waffle to a wire rack to maintain crispness while the remaining waffles cook. Serve immediately with butter, maple syrup, or your preferred toppings.

Notes

If possible, use eggs at room temperature for optimal texture, but cold eggs work in a pinch. For accuracy, measure the flour by weight (270 grams) or lightly spoon it into a measuring cup and level it off—avoid scooping directly from the bag. Stir the batter only until the ingredients are combined to prevent dense waffles. To retain crispness, rest cooked waffles on a wire rack rather than stacking them. For extended crispness, keep the rack in an oven preheated to 200°F. Allow the waffle iron to fully reheat between batches for consistent results.
